QuestionAnswer
What are physical properties and why are they important to the design of a product? The material it is made of, its mass, density, etc
What advantage do Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CAD) provide over traditional paper and pencil design? The advantage of CAD is that it is easily modified, and reproducible. Usually faster to produce. Can be looked at in 3 dimensions and seen at different angles
How does the material chosen for a product impact the design of the product? It determines the products weight and density, its durability, etc.
What advantages do CAD sketches have over freehand sketches? It is usually faster to produce and more accurate. Can be looked at in 3 dimensions and seen at different angles
How is a geometric constraint different from a numeric constraint in the inventor program? Geometric constraint "bonds" two geometric parts (surfaces, edges, centers) together (i.e., mate, flush). A numeric constraint is a measurement or distance and constrains an object to be a certain length.
Acute Triangle A triangle that contains only angles that are less than 90 degrees.
Center of Gravity A 3D point where the total weight of the body may be considered to be concentrated.
Centroid A 3D point defining the geometric center of a solid
Tangent A straight or curved line that intersects a circle or an arc at one and only one point.
Circumscribe A triangle located round a polygon such as a circle. To draw a figure around another, touching it at points but not cutting it.
Principal Axes The lines of intersection created from three mutually perpendicular planes, with the three planes' point of intersection at the centroid of the part.
Density The measure of mass density is a measure of mass per volume
Volume The amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object or enclosed within a container.
Inscribe A shape drawn inside a circle. To draw a figure within another so that their boundaries touch but do not intersect.
Obtuse Triangle A triangle with one angle that is greater than 90 degrees.
Fillet A curved surface formed at the interior intersection of two or more surfaces of an object
Right Triangle A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.
What 3D CAD functions could be used to create a wire paper clip? Spline
What feature would be used to create a 3D representation of a baseball or softball bat that was created on a wood lathe? Revolve
What do you need to know in order to perform a physical property analysis? What material it is made of and dimensions of the object.
Why is it important to perform a physical property analysis prior to producing a part? In order to find the weight and density
Why is it important to understand the mathematics used in physical property analysis? The Mathematics is important for you to determine the volume, density, mass, weight and size of the object you are developing.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
